Image-A-Gogo 1.0b4

Image-A-Gogo 1.0b4 is a practical and must-have application which takes a search string and passes it off to the almighty Google's image search engine and retrieves all pages of the search results as HTML. It then parses the results and loads the thumbnails into memory and presents you with a simple interface to the data.

There are a few advantages to using Image-A-Gogo over Google's web-based interface. First and foremost, Image-A-Gogo allows you to bypass the image's source web page and just get the image. This avoids annoying pop-up and pop-under ads since the JavaScript that produces those ads is never loaded or executed. You can also edit and save the results of the search on your hard drive for later use or can export to a web page for others to peruse.

With Google, you have to go back to the server each time you want to repeat the same search, and can only view a small subset of the results at a time. Also, since Google image search is still in beta, there are a lot of incorrect and duplicate links. Duplicate links are weeded automatically so you don't have to deal with them; incorrect ones can be weeded out as they are discovered. You can also specify that only images that are a certain size or larger are returned, thus eliminating wasting time on thumbnails.
